WOO HOO!!!! IT'S FRIDAY!!
Classes went ok today. English Composition was the same joke that it always is, nobody ever gets a thing out of the class. I think I majorly bombed the World History test that I had today. It's one of those classes that the teacher STINKS and is really hard to understand. NOBODY in that class ever gets ANYTHING out of the lessons or homework. Chapel was good, grandpa preached on Having a Good Life. I had a test in English Grammar, I actually feel really good about it! Thankfully that was the end of my exams today! New Testament Survey was, well, pretty boring. The room was really hot, and I think that grandpa was tired, cuz he was kinda droning on, I almost fell asleep! We had an extra choir practice today cuz we are going to be recording for the next college CD on March 13. We have to be ready for that! I had half an hour break to eat lunch before I had to be at work at 1:30. I worked until 5:30. I decided to skip supper cuz what they were having didn't sound very appetizing. Instead I practiced piano cuz I'm supposed to play in church on March 8.
After that, I came to my room, and only reason I left to go to dorm devos at 10:30. I'm sleeping until 7:30 tomorrow. It will be soooo nice!

Clash was the thing today! I love spirit week, it's so fun! I clashed, and clashed good! It took me almost an hour last night to figure out what I was going to wear today, and it still changed a little bit this morning. However, I looked, well, ummm.....rather clashy! It was fun! My roommate looked even clashier than I did! It was quite amazing! :)
Even with 2 tests and 2 quizzes my classes weren't too bad. :) That is amazing in and of itself. I think I did well with my exams....at least I hope I did. I had a voice lesson today. I really enjoy my voice lessons. I guess it's cuz i have a really good teacher. Bro. Randall, the poor guy, is my teacher. By the way, he still has a red bump on his head from where I hit him!! :)
The weather was absolutely GORGEOUS today! The temperature was arou
I worked today. I had a lot to do, but I managed. I vacuumed for 2 hours! That was crazy! I also cleaned several bathrooms and all of the class rooms. I got it all done in 4 1/2 hours! I have NO idea how I accomplished all of that in that short of time.
Tonight is the Valentines Banquet. Obviously I didn't go. I'm kinda sad cuz I'm in a dress up mood, but I guess it wasn't meant to be. :( Oh well, I'll survive. It was better to work anyways.
Thankfully I don't have any homework due, or any tests or quizzes tomorrow. I don't work either. It's gonna be a wonderful day! I cant wait! :) I think I'm going to run to the store later in the day, but for the most part I will just work on homework, do my laundry, and relax.

Yesterday was kinda boring. Nothing exciting happened in classes. It is spirit week, and yesterday's theme was blue and gold, which are our school colors. I didn't do anything for it cuz I really don't like gold, so as a result I don't own
Today was Western Day. I did wear a plaid shirt, denim skirt, boots, and had my roommate braid my hair. Yes, my hair really was up today! Shocking, I know! I got pictures, just to prove to those of you who know how much I HATE putting my hair up, that I actually did the cursed deed! :)
I played my cello in chapel today, I played "To God be the Glory." by Fanny Crosby. I picked that song on purpose because three years ago today I gave my life to Jesus, and WOW has He changed my life! :)
To God be the glory, great things He has done;
So loved He the world that He gave us His Son,
Who yielded His life an atonement for sin,
And opened the life gate that all may go in.
O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood,
To every believer the promise of God;
The vilest offender who truly believes,
That moment from Jesus a pardon receives.
Great things He has taught us, great things He has done,
And great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son;
But purer, and higher, and greater will be
Our wonder, our transport, when Jesus we see.
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Let the earth hear His voice!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father, through Jesus the Son,
And give Him the glory, great things He has done.
Just in case you are wondering, I managed to make it through the entire piece without harming myself or others! YAY! As I was setting up to play Bro. Randall made some announcement, then he got off the platform, guess he was a little bit nervous! He's got a nice red bump on his head! Poor guy! I do feel really bad, but I also think it is really funny! I guess I can't believe it happened. Sometime last semester, I can't remember if it was in a sermon that he preached, or if it was in a Sunday School lesson, he said that some students come and go and nobody really remembers them. Other come and leave a mark, some good and some bad. At the time that he said that I wondered if I'd leave a mark, well now I know! I wasn't planning on leaving a bad mark, but I sure managed to do leave one quite well! I'm sure he won't be forgetting me for a long time, although he will probably want to forget me. :) :)
I have lots of studying to do today. I have 2 tests and 2 quizzes tomorrow! YIKES!! Pray for me! I normally work on Tuesdays, so I would've been really pressed for time, but tomorrow night is the Valentine's banquet, and I'm not going, but one of the other girls is, and she normally works Wednesdays, but not Tuesdays so she asked to switch days with me. I was more than happy to swap!
